About this book
In Marriages and Families in the Twenty-First Century: A Bioecological Approach, Tasha R. Howe?s unique micro-to-macro perspective invites all readers to explore the full complexity of contemporary relationships and family structures within their ever-changing social, cultural, psychological, and biological frameworks. The illuminating narrative leads students into the future of the field by uniting the latest developmental science with everyday examples that place the individual within the context of family, peers, neighbors, teachers, schools, media, religious institutions, and culture. The Third Edition encourages students to analyze and apply the material with abundant self-reflection exercises, self-assessments, case studies, and critical-thinking questions, providing them with a firm grasp of the research as well as concrete tools to use in their own lives, relationships, and careers.
